Pilot projects were carried out in the provinces of Utrecht, Zuid Holland and Drenthe, as concrete test cases for the Human Nature vision. The positive interaction between people and nature is searched for and used in an appropriate manner. Human experience - In the design of nature areas, good accessibility and a layered experience of nature plays an important role, as a result of which it can play an important role in the daily life of many types of users on different scale levels from garden, street to national park. Short and long term - consideration will need to be given to short-term interventions, which are part of a long-term vision, in which interventions can act as a catalyst for the development of new nature.ĥ. Local initiatives - By approaching nature development more bottom-up, citizens are actively involved and a broader target group is being addressed.Ĥ. Linear structures such as dikes, canals, defense lines or infrastructure are suitable for creating new networks and can connect areas.ģ. ![]() New structures - Human Nature advocates the use of existing and new structures in the landscape that nature can graft onto. Combination with other tasks - Nature development must be explicitly approached in combination with other current tasks, such as: climate change, the energy transition or the increasing recreational importance of the landscape.Ģ. Human activities with potential for nature development and biodiversity are not excluded, but are rather sought:ġ. These human interventions must be used in such a way that nature does not disappear, but is actually produced. The period in which we live is referred to as the Anthropocene, as 83% of the earth's surface is influenced by human activities. Human Nature gives answers to the necessary change of course in the development of nature in the Netherlands and advocates a better interweaving of people and nature. According to Flux, a new spatial perspective is needed on nature development in the Netherlands, in which people are central: Human Nature. Experience and accessibility of nature has disappeared to the background and public opinion considers the 'roll-out' of new nature over the landscape as technocratic. The spatial separation of nature and other land uses, as seemed smart twenty years ago, is experiencing social resistance. Currently, provinces have purchased around 60% of the area of EHS which are planned to be realized, of which 40% on average has been realized. The existing planning and development of nature is still closely related to the ideas of the ‘Ecologische Hoofdstructuur’ (EHS) from 1990, a network of existing and to be realised natural areas in the Netherlands. *Delivery fees vary by market residential deliveries are temporarily unavailable in Nashville and Knoxville.In the Human Nature project, Flux is conducting design research into nature development in the Netherlands.
